Shifting the numbering plan to a new card slot

Appendix E – Changing preprogrammed data
The Meridian Mail auto-configure feature automatically matches Meridian
Mail mail boxes with telephone extensions. If you have the Meridian Mail
card option and you want to use the Meridian Mail auto-configure feature,
make sure of the following:
• The numbering plan is consecutive.
• The first number in the Option 11 system and the Meridian Mail system
are the same.
The first number in the numbering plan is assigned to slot 01, unit 0. You can
shift the first number in the numbering plan to a different card slot.
The following procedure describes how to shift the first number in the
numbering plan to a specific card slot.
Procedure 79
Shift the first number in the numbering plan to a different card slot
1 Locate the first line card. Subtract 1 from the number of the card slot
that it is in.

Multiply this number by 16.

from step 2.
Note: When you enter the value from step 3 in response to the prompt
"FIRST NUMBER (XXXX)?" on the administration telephone menu,
the number is shifted to the appropriate slot.
